Things had been going well in Noct's life ever since he got a boyfriend. It wasn't what most people thought of when that word was used. He was still a virgin and while that was a bitter pill, it was better than being a virgin with no prospects. He had Prompto and they had a promise. Now they waited his father out. Eventually his dad would hand over the throne to him and retire, or worse, pass away. He didn't want to think about that but... it was how his family had worked since the beginning of the nation. Regis was a stubborn old alpha to boot.
 
Noct had been working more in the citadel, attending more meetings, talking to more people, doing his own Working Royal stuff which he had previously shrugged off with the excuse that he was in school. It got Ignis' attention as well as his father's which hopefully would work in his favor in the future. 
 
He had to get the public, the advisors, and the counsel on his side, or at the very least he had to get to where they couldn't oppose him when he took the throne. That meant he was building alliances now so years in the future, whenever he took the throne, he will have built a place for Prompto by his side. A nest of sorts. If that isn't the most omega way to think about it... a nest. 
 
It's what brought him to work most days. Today he was at a public garden maintained by the royal family. He was meeting with some of his citizens, many of them social workers and outreach professionals for the poor and underprivileged. A perfectly banal sort of day. 
 
It wouldn't stay that way. He was trusted enough to handle this on his own so he was attending with his civilians with minimal security. He was within a stone's throw of the citadel after all. It's what the Nifs were counting on. 
 
Some time later there was a great boom and then a siren sounded in the training yard. A voice pinged each glaive and crownsgaurd with earpieces, delivering several codes, each referring to a scenario. This event had several codes; Active shooters, fire, multiple casualties, and a note that Rosebud was not secure. Rosebud was among hostiles. 
 
Rosebud was Noctis' security code the crownsguard and glaives used. Not that he knew that. 
 
Things went to shit real quick and to help it along, there had been a small camera crew playing Noct's talk with the social workers he was with. One channel was broadcasting it from the nearby jumbotron and the chaos unfolded. Noct was talking, suddenly there was an explosion, screaming, fire, gunfire could be heard. Nif soldiers appeared on screen. In seconds it was happening. Other screens around Insomnia began showing the footage. 
 
One could hear the explosions and guns in real time, not from the screen but from the park itself a block over.

The humming and the hair petting were doing wonders at calming Prompto. He felt a little guilty taking comfort from Noct when he should be the one doing the comforting. A good alpha comforted his omega. But this... this was nice. It was the most at peace Prompto had felt since before the attack.

He rolled onto his back, legs draped over the edge of the couch as he looked up at Noctis from his comfortable lap pillow. He reached for one of Noctis' hands and played with his fingers.

"Hey... you wanna hear something super crazy I learned when I was in the hospital?" Prompto didn't know if it was classified information, but surely telling Noctis would be okay, right? The guy was the Prince. He probably had clearance. "... Cor was almost my dad... Isn't that insane? The Immortal could have been my dad!"

Noctis working on his nurturing skills would be good practice for when they start their family. Prompto cooed with contentment. He could get used to this.

"Mm. Cor told me everything when he visited me." He reached for his phone and opened up the photo he'd taken of the original photo in the file of a chunky baby Prompto in a certain Cor Leonis' arms. He showed it to Noct. "So, turns out the Marshal is the one who rescued me and brought me to Insomnia when I was a baby. He wanted to keep me, but it was decided that it was in my best interest to be placed in a 'normal' family."

Prom still couldn't believe it. He had often wondered about his past. Whether he had a real mom and dad out there. Turned out his dad was a mad Empire scientist.

"Prompto Leonis, ha. Can you imagine? Man, how different our lives would have been if we'd known each other since we were babies."

"Man, I hope our baby doesn't look like that! For your back's sake. And can you imagine one of those feet jabbing against your bladder constantly? No, our baby is going to be the perfect size. Small - but not too small. And perfectly formed. Every little finger and toe will need tiny kisses."

Prom wouldn't object to the chocobo onesie with a hood though. As long as mom and dad can have matching ones.

He kicked his feet against the sofa arm, deciding how much he should tell Noct. Noct was his guy, his soulmate. He deserved the truth. They couldn't marry on a lie. "So, um, Cor found me in a research lab in Niflheim... I um... I... I was part of a cloning project and if Cor hadn't rescued me I would have eventually been turned into an MT..."

"You kidding? I'm going to spoil our kid before they're even out of the womb. Gonna spoil their mom too. You're gonna get all the foot massages and back rubs you want, baby. Nothing will be too much for our little chocobean and my beautiful omega baby momma."

Prom hadn't even proposed and already he was thinking ahead to babies. He wasn't actually in any rush. They had plenty of time to start their precious little family. But that didn't mean he didn't think about a pregnant Noctis a lot.

He continued to toy with Noct's fingers, keeping his own hands busy. "I don't know all the details. But what I can make out is the MTs we've encountered - that we thought were robots - were all human once. The Empire does something to them, something with the Starscourge, daemonic miasma, until there's nothing human left. If I didn't have enough reason to hate the Empire before, this would definitely be a reason."

"Noodles, sushi, ice cream and pickles. Whatever you need, baby. Just... don't tell Iggy - you just know he's going to have an entire pregnancy meal plan prepared for you. Only the best, nutritious food and all the veggies so our little chocobean can grow big and healthy." Prom scrunched up his nose. "Actually, no, don't call me baby daddy. We need better parent nicknames for each other..."

Prom melted as Noct kissed his hand. Fuck. He was so sickeningly in love with his omega. "You've nothing to be sorry for, Noct. I was one of the lucky ones."

"Mom. Hm. Yeah. Sounds good. You are gonna be the best momma Eos has ever seen, I already know that. Our little chocobean is going to be so loved. They're gonna know that their mom and dad love them more than anything in the universe. They're going to feel loved, cherished and wanted. Even when you become King and we have an entire nation to rule, we are setting aside family time. Imma make it a royal decree or something."

Their child ... or children ... would never feel unloved or neglected. Prompto would make sure of that.

"Maybe? I can't be the only one, right? All I know is if Cor hadn't kidnapped me and brought me to Insomnia, then I would've ended up as one of those machines instead of being right here at your side where I belong."

Prompto closed his eyes and focused on how incredible Noct's fingers felt in his hair. He could get used to this kind of pampering.

"... I guess that's all the more reason for me to live my life to the fullest, right? To live for all those who never got the chance. And that's what I intend to do. To live by your side. As your alpha, lifemate and best friend."
